Abstract:
Objective To prolong the shelf life of RBCs stored at non-4℃, and improve the ability of blood supplying during wartime. Methods 12 bags of packed RBC were collected from 12 volunteers presenting blood, respectively, and each was averagely divided into 5 parts(groups): combination group, new solution group, ammonia group, control group and 4℃ group. The fist 4 groups were stored at room temperature, and were tested for ATP concentration daily. 4℃ group was stored at 4℃, and RBC ATP concentration was measured at the end of its shelf life, which served as a critical ATP concentration. When RBC ATP concentration of the fist 4 groups decreased to the level of critical ATP, the time of preservation was their shelf life. 6 bags of packed RBC were added the same solution as the combination group, and each was averagely divided into 4 parts(groups)after stored at room temperature for 12 days, which were washed for 0, 5,10 and 15min before centrifugation, respectively. The residual ammonia and the recovery ratio of RBC were measured after washing. Results The shelf life of combination group,new solution group,ammonia group and control group was 12,6,6 and 5 days, respectively. The residual ammonia could be effectively cleaned up after either washing 4 times with 5 min balance time or 3 times with 10 or 15 min balance time. The recovery ratio of RBC was 88.5% and 83.1% after washing 3 and 4 times, respectively. Conclusion The combination of new solution and ammonia was a good additive solution for RBC preservation at non-4℃, and the residual ammonia can be cleaned up using normal saline.
